Meet the exhibitors
In the year 2000, when theatres across the country were considered to be both creatively and financially moribund, the city council decided to corporatise the operating company of the theatre, which is now a Municipal Entity of the City of Joburg.
The Johannesburg Civic Theatre (Pty) Ltd was given a Board of Directors, and Bernard Jay, a veteran UK born theatre producer and administrator who had relocated to South Africa in 1993, was appointed Chief Executive Officer of the company.
In July 2013 Xoliswa Nduneni Ngema, an experienced South African theatre practitioner, was appointed as Chief Executive Officer. The Joburg City Theatres now incorporates Joburg Theatre, Soweto Theatre and Roodepoort Theatre.
